Summary: There are some things Hatake Kakashi had to accept.


Over the years Hatake Kakashi had grown to become a man of acceptance.

He had accepted the death of his teammates, but still lives with the regret of their deaths.

He had accepted his father's suicide, along with the fact that he should not be burdened with the guilt for his death.

He had even accepted that Uchiha Sasuke would probably never return to Konoha, partly because of his lack of teaching.

However, Kakashi could not accept his mysterious new infatuation with his former student.

Haruno Sakura.

Whenever he was in her presence, sparred with her or passed her down the street he would continuously pass off the butterflies in his stomach as some sort of misunderstanding and temporary thing. There was no way he would ever get involved with his ex-student in that way. It was taboo.

Nonetheless, one glorious summer day when he was lounged in his favourite tree, reading one of his precious novels of course. He was suddenly graced with the presence of a certain pink haired kunoichi. Sighing, he waited for her to start on one of her lengthy rants about Ino or the hospital, deciding to make himself comfortable he closed his his eyes and rested his head back againt the tree trunk. He nearly fell out the tree when he felt a pair of lips against his masked ones for a brief second, before the warmth of her breath disappeared in a flurry of cherry blossoms.

Too stunned to move, Hatake Kakasi touched his lips delicately and instantaneously realised something that made him feel light and tingly from his head to his toes. No matter how hard he tried to blink back the thought away he knew it was too late.

He had accepted that he was in love with Haruno Sakura.
